Shen Pianzhi felt that Xiao Chenyuan's words were not proper and ignored him.

But I think he is right. The horse does need rest after running for a day and a night.

Forced into a corner, they found a nearby inn to stay in.

Northland, Imperial Palace.

Yu Huan and Pei Junheng were still in a stalemate.

She insisted on taking Luoluo Chenxing to find the genius doctor Yunyin.

Pei Junheng disagreed and looked at her coldly, "There are so many doctors in the palace, there must be a way to cure your poison."

Yu Huan didn't even bother to raise his eyelids. "Those imperial doctors didn't even know I was poisoned."

Pei Junheng's expression darkened slightly. "I'll send orders and find famous doctors to detoxify you."

Yu Huan glanced at him and pointedly said, "You just don't want to let me go. You're afraid I'll just leave."

Pei Junheng stood beside the couch, his eyes showing a hint of coldness, and did not speak.

Yu Huan frowned and pointed at herself irritably, "I am the heir of a country and have my own responsibilities. How can I leave and never come back?"

"Besides, I don't know how much I want to be the queen. The supreme honor and the house full of gold, silver and treasures are all things I can't give up."

Yu Huan blinked, looking sincere.

Pei Junheng remained indifferent to her words and sneered, "The Queen's acting skills are worrying."

Yu Huan's expression seemed to be about to crack: "???"

Was she exposed just like that?

No, is her acting really that bad?

Yu Huan prepared herself mentally, her clear eyes flickered a few times, she squeezed out a few tears, and choked out, saying:

"Your Majesty, everything I said is true. I have only a month to live. I just want to get the antidote as soon as possible. I don't have the heart to act..."

Pei Junheng's dark blue eyes were calm, without a trace of emotion. He lowered his eyes and looked at her for a moment, raised his hand to call someone over, and said in a deep voice:

"No matter what method we use, we must pry open Zhao Lin's mouth."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Yu Huan was speechless for a moment: "..."

He is such a heartless and ruthless bastard!

Even after she said so much, he still didn't agree to let her set off for the Western Country!

Looking at the heart rate value of 9% above his head, she felt nothing in her heart.

She didn't even realize how much he loved her.

Yu Huan was so angry that he took Luoluo Chenxing back to Fengyi Palace overnight.

Pei Junheng did not follow him, but went to the Ministry of Punishment.

Zhao Lin was imprisoned in a dark and narrow cell. The walls were covered with bloodstains and moss, and a pungent and unpleasant stench was everywhere.

Several jailers took him out of his cell and welded him to a cross.

When Zhao Lin opened his eyes, he saw Pei Junheng standing not far away. His eyes suddenly became fierce and he yelled hysterically:

"Pei Junheng, you killed my brother and you want to torture me. You will definitely go to the eighteen levels of hell and never have a good end!"

Pei Junheng was dressed in a dark brocade robe that made him look tall and straight, and he wore a string of black Buddhist beads on his wrist. He exuded a noble and extraordinary air, which was out of place in this dark and damp Ministry of Punishment.

His brows were filled with a chilling expression, his fingertips silently turning the Buddhist beads as he spoke coldly:

"Hand over the antidote."

He didn't have the leisure to chat with the prisoners.

There is no need to get angry because of what the other person says.

Why bother taking a mere ant seriously?

A bloodthirsty smile blossomed on Zhao Lin's lips. "I was wondering why the emperor would come here in person. It turns out he's here to get the antidote for his beloved concubine!"

"If you're asking for the antidote, why are you acting like this? You're not acting like you're begging for help, so how can I give you the antidote?"

"It seems a bit embarrassing to ask a noble like you to beg for mercy from a criminal, doesn't it?"

His words became more and more crazy, and finally he raised his head and laughed wildly, completely ignoring Pei Junheng.

Pei Junheng sat in the main seat and raised his hand slightly, "Have fun with him."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The jailer bowed and picked up the whip to whip Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin is a tough guy after all.

He did it over ten times but didn't say a word.

His body was beaten to pieces, with spots of bright red on it.

"Hand over the antidote and I can relieve your pain." Pei Junheng glared at him coldly.

Zhao Lin's expression showed sarcasm, and he sneered:

"If I were afraid of death, I wouldn't have gone after Yu Huan and even poisoned her."

"But didn't Yu Huan tell you about the deal with me? You came here in person to ask for medicine for her. I thought your relationship was very deep."

"Even so, Yu Huan still loves my brother more. She is so devoted to him that you can't even compare to her. Hahaha!"

Zhao Lin laughed loudly, his face looking eerie and scary.

The entire Ministry of Punishment was filled with sharp and shrill laughter.

Pei Junheng's eyes revealed a chill, "I want to see whether your words are harder or the whip is harder!"

With a glance, the jailer immediately cracked the whip.

Blood oozed from the corners of Zhao Lin's lips, but he still smiled sinisterly:

"Pei Junheng, I know you love Yu Huan, so I won't give you the antidote. I will kill her and make you lose your love forever!"

After Yu Huan returned to Fengyi Palace, he was still anxious about the poisoning.

But then I thought about it and decided to just give up.

Who knows, after dying, you might be able to return directly to the modern era.

Then let’s eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks this month.

The only drawback is that I can't find actors to accompany me.

Yu Huan was just thinking about the man with abdominal muscles when her whole body started to ache.

She rolled on the couch and screamed in pain.

"Help! I'm in so much pain!"

"Is there anyone here? Please come and save me. I still want to survive for a while."

Luo Luo ran over upon hearing the noise and handed the painkiller pills prescribed by the imperial physician to Yu Huan's lips, "Your Majesty, please take them quickly."

Yu Huan took one pill, but the pain in his body still didn't ease.

Luoluo fed her another one.

After swallowing two pills, Yu Huan felt the pain gradually subside and his expression finally relaxed.

Damn it, why is one not enough now and two are required?

Will it not increase step by step in the future?

What if even painkillers are no longer effective?

Wouldn't that mean she would die in pain?

When Yu Huan thought of the excruciating pain he had just felt, goose bumps appeared all over his body.

No, she couldn't bear to die in pain.

So, Yu Huan had a bold idea in his mind.

Night gradually fell, and a lonely moon hung in the inky black sky.

Three people dressed in eunuchs' clothes were climbing the wall stealthily.

As long as you climb over this wall, you can escape from the palace.

Luoluo and Chenxing squatted on the ground. After Yu Huan stepped on them, they held Yu Huan's legs and stood up steadily.

Yu Huan leaned back, and if he hadn't grabbed the red wall in time, he would have fallen to the ground.

She struggled to climb up, leaning on the wall with her hands. When she saw the scene outside, her eyes lit up.

This is what freedom tastes like!

As long as she kicks her feet, she can jump out of the palace!

Suddenly, a cold voice sounded behind Yu Huan——

"Where is the Queen going so late at night?"

not good!

It’s Pei Junheng’s voice!

He was caught while running away.

But I've already run, I can't give up.

Thinking of this, Yu Huan climbed up to the top of the wall using his hands and feet, and after standing firmly on his feet, he looked down.

Pei Junheng's narrow eyes were filled with cold light as he stared at her without blinking.

If you look closely, you can see the anger raging around him.

Yu Huan raised his eyebrows proudly and waved his hand, "Goodbye, Pei Junheng."

Pei Junheng's eyes darkened, "Queen, you have become much bolder."

Luoluo and Chenxing were already kneeling on the ground, not daring to raise their heads, their bodies trembling slightly.

Pei Junheng glanced at them and said in a cold and inhuman tone, "They both helped the Queen escape. They will be punished with fifty strokes of the cane and thrown into a mass grave."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Liu followed the order.

Several servants behind them immediately stepped forward and took Luoluo and Chenxing to be beaten with a caning.

If they were beaten with the stick fifty times, they would surely die!

The blows are all on the bones, who can bear it?

I didn't expect Pei Junheng to use such cruel punishment on them!

Yu Huan froze for a moment, gritting his teeth and saying, "They are innocent!"

Pei Junheng didn't even blink, nor did he call for a stop.

They were being held on the bench, with the blow about to fall on their backs.

Yu Huan's eyelids twitched, and he whispered, "I'm coming down!"

Pei Junheng took advantage of her unwillingness!

What a cunning old man!

Yu Huan cursed inwardly, but forced a smile on the surface. "Your Majesty, who said I was going to run away? I just thought it was interesting to watch the scenery from the top of the wall..."

"Do you believe it yourself?" Pei Junheng glanced at her.

Do not believe.

Yu Huan smiled wryly, "Of course I believe it."

Pei Junheng was too lazy to listen to her nonsense and returned to the point, "Come down."

Yu Huan glanced down. It would have been fine if she hadn’t looked, but when she did, she was shocked.

This city wall is too high.

If she jumps down like this, she might sprain her ankle, right?

Pei Junheng caught the fear in her eyes and raised his lips indifferently: "Are you afraid yet you still climb so high?"

Yu Huan gritted his teeth and replied, "I didn't feel it was that high when I was climbing."

Pei Junheng: "Then jump down by yourself."

"Your Majesty, why don't you catch me?" Yu Huan blinked, trying to awaken a trace of compassion in his heart.

Pei Junheng stood with his hands behind his back, and every strand of his hair revealed an indifference and a clear hint of rejection.

Yu Huan simply sat on the wall and started to act like a spoiled brat, "Your Majesty, if you don't catch me, I'll just sit here all night."

"It's up to you." Pei Junheng said in a dull tone.

Yu Huan: “???”

Why don't you play by the rules?!

Shouldn't I just follow her instructions and agree to catch her?

Pei Junheng raised his hand.

Several servants raised their boards and hit Luoluo and Chenxing on the back with expressionless faces.

They were in so much pain that they let out a broken sound.

Yu Huan hurriedly said, "I'll go down, isn't it okay for me to go down?"

After saying this, Yu Huan closed his eyes and jumped down.

The biting cold wind blew across her cheek, causing a slight sting.

Yu Huan felt that his life was about to end here.

Who knew that the next moment I fell into a warm embrace, with a cool and light fragrance lingering around my nose.

It’s the smell of Pei Junheng!

Yu Huan opened her eyes and clearly saw his handsome and perfect profile.
